Quantum yields of selective and non-selective luminescence in solid solutions

The quantum yields of selective and non-selective luminescence have been calculated in terms of the Markoffian and non-Markoffian theories of jumping quenching. The activator concentration dependences are shown to be functionally different in a range where the yields are readily measurable and thus applicable for discrimination between the two theories. The concentration dependence of radiation anisotropy has been calculated under conditions in which luminescence depolarization is accompanied by luminescence quenching either by alien admixtures or activator dimers.

Luminescence intensity and dopant concentration in AlN:Tb

The luminescence intensity of Tb³⁺ embedded in sputter deposited and subsequently annealed AlN shows strong concentration dependence. The intensity of the characteristic green luminescence of Tb³⁺ rises at low concentrations with rising concentration. At higher concentrations, strong concentration quenching occurs. The optimum concentration range of Tb³⁺ in AlN was observed to range between 2.5 at% Tb and 3.6 at% Tb. The experimentally evaluated concentration dependence results can be described by a rate equation approach based on available models of luminescence quenching.

Quenching problems in inorganic luminescent materials

Quenching problems were investigated on inorganic luminescent materials for fluorescent lamps. It could be shown that the decrease of luminescence intensity under the influence of short-wave UV radiation is not only a function of the irradiation time but also depends strongly on the activator concentration and a mechanical treatment. The photochemical luminescence quenching represented by the intensity loss as a function of the irradiation time can be expressed as a sum of three exponential terms, constants and exponents of which contain the concentration of virgin and UV induced lattice defects in both the bulk and the surface. To explain the complex quenching process the theory of radiationless energy transport was used.     

Highly Selective Optical Detection of Fe3+ Ions in Aqueous Solution Using Label‐Free Silicon Nanocrystals

High brightness amine‐terminated silicon nanocrystals (Si NCs) have been utilized in a simple and rapid assay for the highly selective and sensitive detection of Fe³⁺ via quenching of their strong blue luminescence, without the need for analyte‐specific labeling groups. Sensitive detection of Fe³⁺ is successfully demonstrated, with a linear relationship observed between luminescence quenching and Fe³⁺ concentration from 5 × 10^?6 to 900 × 10^?6m and a limit of detection of 1.3 × 10^?6m . The Si NCs show excellent selectivity toward Fe³⁺ ions, with no quenching of the luminescence signal induced by the presence of Fe²⁺ ions, allowing for solution phase discrimination between the ionic species in different charge states.     

Strong quenching of praseodymium f-f luminescence induced by a surface of Y2SiO5:Pr nanocrystal

The direct comparison of the luminescence decay data obtained for nano- and bulk Y₂SiO₅:Pr³⁺ crystals has revealed that the concentration threshold of luminescence quenching is strikingly low for nanocrystals. Nanocrystal inhomogeneous stress field induced by a surface stimulates the segregation of the doped Pr³⁺ ions within the surface layer that provides the relaxation of elastic tension arising due to the difference of the ionic radii of Pr³⁺ and Y³⁺. The Pr³⁺ irregular distribution in the nanocrystal volume results in the Pr³⁺ local concentration increasing that facilitates the luminescence quenching.     

Spectral-luminescence study of the formation of QD-sulfophthalocyanine molecule complexes in an aqueous solution

The spectral-luminescence manifestations of the formation of quantum dot (QD)-phthalocyanine complexes as a result of electrostatic interaction have been investigated. Effective QD luminescence quenching has been found in complexes of this type. The luminescence of the molecules associated in complexes with QDs is also partially quenched. A mathematical model of the formation of QD-organic molecule complexes is proposed.

Luminescent spectral characteristics of EuxLa1 - xTa7O19 polycrystals

Eu_xLa_{1 - x}Ta₇O₁₉ geptatantalates have been synthesized (x = 0.005-10). The luminescence and excitation spectra of these geptatantalates have been investigated at 77 and 300 K. It is supposed that the Eu³⁺ luminescence spectrum for all x may be interpreted within one type optical center with D_2d symmetry. The energy level diagram of the luminescence center has been worked out. It has been found that there is concentration dependence quenching of an europium luminescence. The reasons for this are discussed.     

Y2O2S:Sm3+发光材料在不同激发波长的浓度特征

研究了在不同激发波长下三价钐离子掺杂硫氧化钇的发光强度对浓度的依赖关系。研究发现磷光体的发光强度不仅跟激活离子的浓度有关,而且跟激发时所采用的不同激发波长有关。磷光体发光强度与激活剂掺杂量的变化曲线表明,在不同激发路径下磷光体具有不同的发光性质。采用Sm^3 离子直接跃迁的413nm对样品进行激发时,发生猝灭的浓度低至约0．2mol％;当采用263nm高能紫外线激发时,浓度猝灭发生在较高浓度处(～2mol％),后者是前者的10倍。对Sm^3 离子发射强度与浓度关系曲线进行了拟合计算,结果表明Sm^3 在Y2O2S中浓度猝灭的原因主要是相邻中心的偶极-四极相互作用引起的交叉弛豫。     

MgAl2O4:Mn2+绿色荧光粉的合成与光学性质

采用高温固相反应法制备了一系列MgAl₂O₄∶xMn²⁺。在450 nm的蓝光激发下,观察到了Mn²⁺的⁴T₁→⁶A₁跃迁的绿色发光,发射光在x=10%时达到最大值。研究结果表明,在x＞10%之后,材料的发光强度没有明显减弱。发光强度的减弱是由于Mn²⁺导致的缺陷增多引起的。缺陷态与Mn²⁺对于蓝色激发光进行竞争,并且对520 nm的发射光有再吸收过程。温度升高后的发光增强也被观察到。通过变温漫反射谱研究,我们认为这与充当电子陷阱的缺陷态在高温下内部电子被热激发有关。     

Three-center Auger effect and the quantum yield of the luminescence of ZnS-based phosphors

In this communication, the luminescence properties of ZnS luminophors are characterized. The effect of concentration quenching of the photo- and cathodoluminescence (PL, CL) is discussed. An appropriate mechanism of nonradiative recombination is proposed, and its efficiency is estimated. It is shown that the three-center Auger effect can be responsible for the cathodoluminescence saturation observed under increased current density.     

Effect of copper on dislocation luminescence centers in silicon

The effect of copper on dislocation luminescence centers in silicon has been investigated using photoluminescence and transmission electron microscopy. It has been demonstrated that there exist two main mechanisms responsible for quenching of dislocation luminescence by the copper impurity. The first mechanism is dominant at high copper concentrations and associated with the decrease in the time of nonradiative recombination of nonequilibrium charge carriers due to the formation of copper precipitates in silicon. This leads to the quenching of the entire dislocation luminescence and the edge exciton luminescence. The second mechanism is associated with the interaction of individual copper atoms with deep dislocation centers D1/D2, which results in the passivation of the recombination activity of these centers. This mechanism takes place even at room temperature and is highly effective at low copper concentrations.

Effect of Temperature and Oxygen on Luminescence Spectra and Polarization of Divinylbenzoxazolylbiphenyl Thin Films

H-type molecular aggregation as assembly with chromophore dipoles arranged parallel to each other has been observed in absorption and luminescence spectra of divinylbenzoxazolylbiphenyl thin films deposited on quartz glass substrate by thermovacuum method. The reversible changes of fluorescence anisotropy have been observed under film heating below the glass transition temperature correlating with lifetime changes. The addition of oxygen was found to cause an essential luminescence quenching. The hexyloxy group in the side chain of dibenzoxazolylbiphenyl molecule decreases H-type molecular aggregation and energy migration, and increases luminescence quenching induced by adsorbed oxygen owing to the formation of more porous film morphology.     

Effect of Lumophore and Plasticiser Concentration on The Heterogeneity of Oxygen Quenching in Thin Film Oxygen Sensors

Kinetic heterogeneity of the luminescence decay and oxygen quenching of Pt and Pd octaethylporphyrin/ethyl cellulose (OEP/EC) thin film oxygen sensors has been investigated with respect to (a) concentration of lumophore and (b) addition of plasticiser. The source of kinetic heterogeneity shown by PtOEP films under N₂ is a monomer–dimer equilibrium in which the dimer luminescence decays with k = 0.0527×10⁶ s⁻¹ and the monomer luminescence with k = 0.0101×10⁶ s⁻¹ and K _D = 790 (±20) mol dm⁻³. For PdOEP/EC films there is no detectable aggregation and luminescence decays under N₂ show good fits to single exponential curve fits at all concentrations studied. The addition of either tripbutyl phosphate or dimethylphthalate as plasticiser does not decrease kinetic heterogeneity for oxygen quenching of luminescence in the films.     

Kinetics of ultrafast migration-accelerated quenching in nanoparticles

It has been analytically shown that the kinetics of ultrafast migration-accelerated quenching of luminescence in nanoparticles for the case of the short-pulse-induced excitation of donors has a complex multistage character. This conclusion has been confirmed by Monte Carlo computer simulation. An order stage (exponential in time) has been observed at small times. However, in contrast to a bulk crystal, quenching in nanoparticles is exponential only to a depth determined by the average number of donors in nanoparticles. Then, differences in the quenching rates of excitations in individual nanoparticles lead to the onset of a disordered stage of ultrafast quenching, which satisfies a t ^3/S time law for the S multipole interaction type. The quenching rate of excitations at the disordered stage depends on the average number of donors in nanoparticles. In this property, ultrafast quenching in nanoparticles qualitatively differs from that in a bulk crystal: the ultrafast quenching rate in the bulk crystal is independent of the donor subsystem parameters as a whole and the donor concentration in particular. The time of the transition between stages has been determined.
